Free Tibet - Olympics Protest in NYC - March 10, 2008

I can't promise good quality, especially with the sound. you can vaguely hear "this is what democracy looks like" and "more freedom, more peace"
I live on 12th and 3rd Avenue, so I literally videotaped this from my window with the video function of my handheld camera. there was about 4-5 groups of people like this marching for about a half hour past my window.

Note 03/19/08: I'd like to thank everyone that stopped by to my measly video as I did not plan to send any sort of message or receive more than 100 views.

i'm not sure where they started, but Chinatown is in the other direction. I think it stopped in Union Square Park (about a mile away) but i'm not positive.

His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama

These protests are a manifestation of the deep-rooted resentment of the Tibetan people under the present governance.

As I have always said, unity and stability under brute force is at best a temporary solution. It is unrealistic to expect unity and stability under such a rule and would therefore not be conducive to finding a peaceful and lasting solution.

Boycott the 2008 Chinese Olympics

[dorje168]

During the Cultural Revolution the Chinese government systematically attacked and tried to eradicate the cornerstones of Tibetan culture - language, monastic life, Buddhism and social structure. Hundreds of thousands of Monks, Nuns and civilians were imprisoned or killed for wearing traditional hairstyles and clothing, engaging in traditional song or dance, or voicing their religious beliefs

If Tibet is costing the chinese communist party money please leave Tibet today.

The communist party has not been welcome in Tibet for 60 years. Do you know anything about human rights in Tibet?

[ChinaKillsNuns]

Really?

The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has failed and is a joke because it supports genocides just like the chinese communist party.

China supports terrorism.

Evidence point out that Chinese regime staged the violence protest in Lhasa in order to discredit the peaceful protests of Buddhist Monks Evidence also point out that China not only supported Osama Bin Laden, Taliban and Sudan's military regime but also provided military training to Taliban militia before and after September 11 . China is also said to have help Sudanese regime plan the genocide that massacred about 400,000 people in Darfur.
